What Is the distance OF the horizon from
the sea-shorel Owing 10 the curvature OF
the earth's surface the distance between
spectator on the sea- shore End the din Of
the horizon becomes greater according To
the height Of the spectator above the level
OF the sea- The rule for measuring this
distance is as follows: To the height of
the eye in feet add half the height and
extract the square root Of the sum, the
result being the distance in statute miles.
Hence, If the Spectators eye were six
feet above the level Of the sea, the dis
lance would be three mics; IL his eye
were ten feet above the level OF the sea
tho distance would be nearly four miles,
and so on for any height above the sea

Uncle Phil Armour tells q good story
about one OF his customers down South.
The man is dealer in canned meats and
butterine, which find largo sale through
out the South. He wrote a few weeks ago
making some inquiries about goods, and
his letter was promptly answered by sfr
Webster through dictation to his stcnog-
rapher and typewriter. The Southern
merchant was evidently somewhat puz-
zled and nettled at receiving typewriter
letter, for he replied:
